8. Employment Offer After the City has identified its top candidate, Springsted will assist in <br />developing an employment offer, if requested. We will present the employment offer to the <br />successful candidate in accordance with direction received from the City. Springsted will <br />continue to keep all candidates apprised of this last phase of the selection process. This step <br />in the process becomes extremely important if, for any reason, the top candidate declines the <br />offer. Once the successful candidate has accepted an employment offer, Springsted will <br />notify all other candidates of the appointment. <br />II. Project Schedule <br />A tentative project timetable is provided below to illustrate the time allowed for each step of the <br />process.
